Chapter 182 Merlin's Decision

It's not that what Roland experienced before was all hallucinations.

Although with Roland's willpower, it seems normal for him to fall into hallucinations... But his current perception is already higher than [-] points, and the instructor can definitely remind him after he falls into hallucinations.

After all, it is impossible for a saint to fall into hallucinations.

Sharing the vision of the saint can break all illusions - this is the principle of Higgs' gaze.

Besides, if Roland can still get experience while hallucinating, Roland would like to be able to fall into hallucinations a few more times...

System prompts don't lie.

Since it said that Roland killed a Skull Crusher, then Roland killed a Skull Crusher.

In fact, rather than saying that his group was bewitched by the illusion and fell into a collective hallucination, it might be better to say that Roland and the others entered a dungeon——

To be more precise, it should be that Roland and the Lord of Violence were all pulled into this dungeon by Merlin using the Old City.

Looking back now, when Roland and the others came out of the underground teleportation station, they probably had already entered the old city.

This old city is nested outside the real White Tower.Resist all damage from outside the White Tower for the White Tower.

In other words, the hard-pressed Lord of Violence gave up his right arm and hit the empty space—what he destroyed was just a copy of the White Tower that overlapped with the White Tower, the exact same version of the Old City.

Not to mention that the building was demolished by the sandstorm—even if the entire dungeon was crushed to pieces, as long as the core of this witchcraft was not broken from the inside, it could be reset instantly.

In this way, it can explain why the gods must let the priest enter the White Tower to destroy the White Tower.

Thinking about it now, it is very likely that the Lord of Violence was only fooled by the gods to test the means of the White Tower.

Maybe it wasn't the Lord of Violence who made the move last time, but someone else, but the gods must have tried to make their priests work hard to sneak into the White Tower.

Otherwise, it doesn't even need to gather so many priests, as long as a few gods pay a certain price, the White Tower can be razed to the ground from the outside.

For the gods to break the hostile relationship of nearly a thousand years and be forced to unite together, it must be the White Tower that pushed them to the limit.

The reason why Roland didn't know that the White Tower was attacked by the gods was also very simple - because the attack had no effect.

Looking at the curiosity and contempt flashed in the eyes of the wizards coming and going around when they looked at him in a state of embarrassment, Roland knew that these people had no idea that the Lord of Violence had attacked the White Tower once before.

Under the shadow of the Old City, the inhabitants of the White Tower are ignorant and happy.

This version of The White Tower Falls is the content of the closed beta and public beta of the land of the gods.At this time, the player can only choose the human race, which is limited to the limit of the black iron race. The upper limit of the player's level is still 20, and it is impossible to have the power to interfere with this plot.

In other words, the player's information sources at this stage all come from NPCs.And these NPCs themselves don't know that they have passed the disaster of destruction, how can the players know?

Roland sighed deeply.

Ignorance is a blessing.

No one who looks out into the White Tower knows what he is about to face before final destruction comes with a hand.

Now that the gods have begun to test, it means that the White Tower is not far from the planned destruction——

...However, thinking of Merlin's actions, Roland couldn't help feeling chills in his heart.

Assuming that Merlin knew the source of the violence long ago...

So, what does Merlin mean by locking Roland and the others outside the barrier with more than 20 Skull Crusher?
What is the difference between this and closing the door of the house and shutting out friends after the zombies come?
Fortunately, Roland is strong enough.Only then can the Skull Crusher be dealt with.

Otherwise...

Roland suddenly froze in place.

"I see……"

"Is it because Joseph killed a few agents of the waste bureau, and worried that we are with the Lord of Violence..."

Roland suddenly woke up.

If Merlin could see Joseph all the time, then the current situation could be explained.

Although I don't know if the mentor has blocked Roland from Merlin's perception, but in any case, it is impossible for Merlin to misunderstand that Joseph obeyed Roland.

Therefore, Roland had to take the blame for Joseph—although he was supposed to take the blame.

Joseph killed those trash for no reason, which is equivalent to clearly showing the fact that Roland entered the White Tower with malicious intentions before Merlin's eyes.

However, the current chaotic situation made Merlin dare not take any action.

This is the current situation of the White Tower.

Who belonged to the twenty skull-crushers over there and what they were doing, Merlin knew exactly what they were doing.

On Roland's side, Merlin didn't know what he was going to do in the White Tower.

So he needs to test it out.

As far as the result is concerned, he only knew that Roland was not with the Lord of Violence.But as long as he is not blind, he will be able to see Roland's identity as a voter.

Merlin is human after all.Theoretically, he should have only lived less than a hundred years old, unlike the other four tower masters.

He does not know the existence of the saint.

Maybe Merlin, who is the active backup of the White Tower, knows some knowledge about the saint, but as long as his brain is normal, it is impossible to directly associate Roland as the chosen one of the saint.

In his opinion, as a voter of other gods, Roland was probably attacked by the Skull Crusher only because of the personal grievances between the gods, and also because of personal grievances and the complete "annihilation" of the soul of a Skull Crusher——

After Roland did this, Merlin gave up on Roland's temptation.

He knew that since Roland could dismantle one Skull Crusher without taking a breath, he would be able to dismantle the remaining nineteen.

In case all the twenty skull-crushers die here without even returning their souls, the gods will probably overestimate the means of the White Tower - under this overestimation, it is possible to guess exactly what the White Tower is doing. limit.

Therefore, it is better to directly control the Old City to kill the nineteen skull-crushers, send the news of Roland's presence back to the Lord of Violence, and clean up all his relationships...

... How cowardly.

Roland couldn't help sneering.

After all, Merlin is only a human being, and his vision is not high enough.Even if he knew the god in front of him, he was only subconsciously calculating according to the standards among human forces.

It seems that even a wizard, a profession that is indifferent to the world, can't help but become confused once he gets old.

If Roland is really God's chosen one, then the Lord of Violence will not attack Roland no matter how angry he is after this incident. Instead, he will endure until all the dust settles and kill Roland in one go.

Taking action now is simply falling into the trap.

He had already lost one of his hands, and his experimental actions failed as expected. The reputation of the Lord of Violence had dropped to its lowest point in history.

If he looks for trouble again, it's really easy for Tyre to find an excuse, and the gods behind United Roland will kill him...

The reason why Tire is the strongest god is that he annexed many priesthoods one by one.

If Roland were Merlin, he would have directly killed Roland and the twenty Skull Crusher here.

Now that you already know that your enemy will attack sooner or later, and will definitely not give up, you don't need to think about any strategies to cause internal conflicts in the other party.As long as the other party has a leader with a prestige that can overwhelm everyone, this kind of conflict is harmless at all.

And there are such leaders of the gods.But luckily, no one knew about it.

Gods don't fight back and forth like monkeys for people to see -- and they can't even fight if they want to.

All the results that people can see that demonstrate the power of gods are nothing more than the strength of believers and envoys.

And the pope of Tire is not good at keeping a low profile, never leaving the holy city, and has become a "legendary" figure.

Two years after the collapse of the White Tower, Merlin, who had escaped, successfully deciphered Lyra's text, and then he understood what role Tire played in the war of the gods.

In Roland's view, since he had already decided to fight sooner or later, it would be better to slap him in the face before the other party reacted.

It's best to be able to smoke, but at least it's a slap in the face if you can't.

At this moment, a serious man in a slender black robe and a black blindfold suddenly appeared in front of Roland and the others.

About the same height as Robert, nearly a head taller than Roland.

He has short, crisp white hair, and his exposed eyes are a very light ice blue, and his black eyepatch is full of slowly moving silver runes.

...The magic dog Scott?

Roland couldn't help narrowing his eyes.

The loyal dog who has followed Anvilia for thousands of years...hasn't left the White Tower with her?

Roland realized that it was very possible that the collapse of the White Tower was not as simple as he first understood.

"Master Merlin welcomes you."

This rigid man wearing a wizard's robe but giving off the look of a priest just bowed slightly to Roland and the others, and said in a very flat tone, "Please do yourself a favor."
